Hello everyone, another lurker stepping out of the shadows to speculate So. Elizabeth Danfield is behind all this mess, the woman who cares about power. Well, she also cares about Beau. But she really craves power and she usually gets it by blackmailing people with useful connections and people with lots of money. Zach can't offer her those things, he is just freshman football player, talented but he can't offer ED money or influence, neither can Wii and JJ. Yeah, they have some money, but Elizabeth is used to much bigger sums of money. I think she is after Brad and/or Stef - billionaires with a lot of people they can influence. But they both have their own security, so Will, JJ and Darius are easier targets. Maybe ED hopes to hurt them enough to strongarm Brad (and/or Stef) into... something. If Zach is banned it can be used to turn him against Will, ED can fake evidence that it was Will who gave Zach doping to destroy his career so they can date openly. Will would be crushed if Zach not just dumps him but ends up hating him. So Zach is nothing more than collateral damage. Nothing much can be done with JJ, his career is on hold without ED input, so she went after his relationship. Bonus points - with Alex's father and Mary-Ellen's help Elizabeth can extend her influence over Alex himself and Duke of Suffolk. ED must have dirt on Pentagon generals, so Darius may end in some Iraqi hellhole.
